Think outside the box. Entries can be supportive, fun, creative, and global! The Allies 4 Equality group writes:

“Your message could comment on why LGBTQ rights and awareness is important to you, and/or something you would like to tell youth that may be struggling with their sexuality or acceptance. Our goal for this project is to spread awareness of LGBTQ issues, and to give hope to LGBTQ youth that maybe be struggling with acceptance, from others or themselves. We hope to post pictures and messages from people and groups from all over the world to demonstrate the level of support that is available for LGBTQ youth. If you prefer, you can create a video with your message instead of writing it out.”
